Gangnam acid sends teens on bad trip

Coffs Harbour police are warning of a bad batch of L-S-D said to be 16 times the strength of regular acid.

Two teens were hospitalised over the weekend.

A 15-year-old girl was in a critical condition and was released from hospital yesterday afternoon after taking the drug at a party at Boambee East.

Detective Inspector Cameron Lindsay says at another party at Toormina, a 15-year-old boy had to be restrained after violent hallucinations.

"He's obviously been given a real wakeup call about this.

"I was talking with his parents earlier, they're very concerned at the time that he was affected by this they really thought they were going to lose him and they thought they would be going to a funeral some time this week," he said.

"These are really bad drugs, kids really need to stop and think about what the potential is."
